Culp's Hill North

Monument-lined Slocum Avenue climbs along the northern section of Culp's Hill until just before it reaches its summit. Williams Avenue, meanwhile, takes a shortcut to the west. Both are one-way north and west. The summit is topped by a parking area and an observation tower that climbs above the surrounding trees.

The men of the Union 12th Corps, reinforced by regiments from the 1st and 6th Corps, fought back attacks by the Confederate 2nd Corps for two days on these rocky, densely wooded hillsides.
